unable to satisfy dependencies ???


I'm running FC2 and I'm receiving the following error message when I try to do a yum upgrade. I've posted below what is contained within my yum.conf file.

I've just installed FC2 and then I tried to do a yum update. Did I forget to install a package from the CDs?

Thank you for any help.

Brian

SELinux may need to be installed seperately - if it's not on your install disks, you should be able to download it from RedHat's site.
